Public bug reported:

I've tried to add several files (text, jpg,png and zip) and folders to a
pre-existing archive. If I'm adding any file to the root of the archive
then everything's fine but if I attempt to add any number of files or
folders to a subdirectory within the archive then I get the message that
an error has occurred when adding the files.

This happens with RAR, Zip and 7z archives (possibly others) that were
initially created on Ubuntu, There is no special character in any of the
file names and with the RAR archive the same result happens when it's
password protected.

I added a new folder containing a file to a new zip archive via bash and the 
zip command.
zip -g Arch.zip folder/minecraft.svg

following adding another file to the same directory

zip -g Arch.zip folder/Image.svg

Which succeeded successfully.
